They don't seem to be the most durable considering I've only had them 6 months and they are falling apart. HOWEVER, my work might be too heavy for my shoes. I work for a distribution company and I am constantly walking on a concrete floor, crouching, lifting and pulling pallets with a manual jack. Pallet weights range from ultra-light to "why is that jack making that funny noise?" for long-distance use. And I usually do that 10-14 hours a day, 5 or 6 days a week. After 6 months of daily wear, both at work and when running errands, both shoes have completely worn out the insole on the toes and are quite worn on the heel. All in all I will most likely be ordering these every 6 or 7 months as my job reimburses me for the safety shoes and these are more comfortable than the other pair of shoes I bought. Also, I like how they look.
